Who is the Commissioner?
A commissioner is a person authorized by the Province of Ontario to take oaths or declarations when you sign an affidavit or statutory declaration. The city clerk or designate are, by virtue of office, commissioners for taking affidavits. This authority is conferred by the Commissioners for taking Affidavits Act, 1990.

Commissioner Responsibilities?
A commissioner for taking affidavits (alsoknown as commissioner of oaths) is not the same as a notary public. A commissioner has authority only to administer oaths and take affidavits. Theperson signing the affidavit must show government issued identification that contains a current photo and signature, such as a valid driver’s licence. You are required to sign in the presence of the commissioner. Due to the current COVID-19 situation, effective March 16, 2020, the Law Society of Ontario, Canada, has changed its rules to enable the members to commission documents online through video and online signing applications too.
